I genuinely thought that since this was Woodside, it was meant to be urging on Fifo’s to better productivity. I realise now they mean the Cockburn Thunder, who I have an awful feeling are going to win the footy, topping off a very crappy few weeks for Australia. By Bento.

‘haven’t you read the paper? Business confidence is up, because we own the government now. So you can all just fuck off! We’re going to replace you all with $2 Africans and take our profits offshore and pay no tax. That’s why confidence is up!’

I hate to tell you, but Father Xmas, the Tooth Fairy and the gods of established religions are not proven to exist.
Oh! And the world probable is more than 6,000 years old, climate change is more than likely being forced by human activity, and the Earth is very possibly not flat.

It would be nice if it were a matter of left vs right., but Abbott has never been about economically rational decision making , such an assertion is from the Liberal party propaganda unit.He is about belief , about fighting even when you have run out of resources to fight with. The decision about the Mersey hospital was a leftist one, but still stupid.

actually, reading the front page of the West again, they run with a headline that the change of government has boosted business confidence, but halfway through the article mention that the WA Chamber of Commerce report that business confident in WA is at an all-time low, something backed up by other organisations. Their assertion that everything is rosy seems to be based on the fact that a car lease company has hired ONE PERSON because they are happy that teh changes to FBT will be revoked.

That, and the fact that the Hon Senator for Roo Poo wants to uphold our right to fully-sick modified utes and Australian Family Values.
I think he thought the Senate was a Holden HSV owner’s club. “Cos my mate had a Senator and it was awesome, ay”.
